Fog
The last two mornings have had some heavy fog, but no rain. Dry soil and wet leaves mean fungus on the Poa annua. Dollar spot fungus - bottom picture - is visible on all the courts (except ct. 18).

Planter
This pot of plants is my choice for Best Planting at LCC, 2013. Nate wins this prestigious choice award as he picked the plants and positioned them to perfection.
Progress
Clubhouse renovations and grass trial are progressing nicely. Very good germination and coverage at the trial area - picture is 6 days after planting.

Trial
What is all that dead grass by the bangboard? Jeff and Steve aerated and verticut an area in preparation for seeding. 4 different varieties are being planted and we will track their progress throughout the fall and next season.
